Today was a very productive day at the ICTA building! Personally, I have benefited from being here at work everyday because there are so many great grad students and advisors who are willing to help. Whenever we run across a problem in our work, the grad students always seem to be accessible to answer a quick question. This has helped me a lot, since I am developing a network of energy flows modeled on the rooftop garden here at the building. Everyone here is familiar with the data and information that I am working with, so I have had a lot of support with my work. It has been great, and I have been able to progress my work a lot faster than anticipated!
After work, we headed to Gracia, where Sarai is staying. We explored the town which is close to the touristy part of the city, but a lot more quiet. We went out for dinner there, and invited Pablo, another student temporarily staying in the same airbnb house as Sarai. It was fun to see the daily life of Spanish culture, not influenced too much by tourism.
Fun fact of the day: The University of Barcelona (in the city) was founded in 1450! That's over 300 years older than our country!!!
